XRose - Free SMS

There is a software called xrose, which claims to be able to send text messages for free. I tried it and it's indeed pretty good. The sending speed is extremely fast, and the success rate is also high. So far, there hasn't been any situation where it shows sent on this side but not received on the other side — however, this "free" is for users with GPRS monthly package. Sending short messages via xrose will generate GPRS traffic. The receiver will get a text message from 1010 + your phone number. It's best to tell your friends not to reply directly to avoid unnecessary charges (you can't just enjoy yourself and坑others~).

Also, xrose has functions such as weather inquiry and mobile resources download, but they are not very powerful. For news, it's more convenient to use UCWeb to browse Sina.

xrose supports Symbian, SP, and KJava platforms. Basically, it can be used on any mobile phone. However, I would advise everyone not to use it as a spammer just because it's free. xrose will put malicious users on the blacklist. After that, you don't need to think about anything else except uninstalling it~
